All would fit right in and many are full up restorations.

PureStockDrag rules are almost identical to IHRA Pure Stock.
Only minor changes are needed if at all.
Many already have gone through tear down to validate their records.
These guys are tough, here are the rules.

Many of these cars would own IHRA Pure Stock Records.
Plus they would add a huge mystique what the originals actually ran.

IHRA (hint--hint) there is a whole Pure Stock market ready for you to invite...

Dan, unfortunately most of the car that run crazy times at Pure Stock on the independent circuit are just bogus car with over cubic limits with everything to make i make it go fast, such as lighten seats, removal of radio(cutting the front part only, removing everything of metal and replacing it with clone pieces of plastic to make it look like the original, a couple of them have crafted a 906 into a 727 just for the weight. No we need some way to limit the creativity of some.lol CR

The " pure stock drags " races I have read about are the most legit pure stock class I have ever seen:

Chris, they're not cheaters just people taking it to the limit. It does not say that the radio has to be.working. Like Smokey Yunick said many times, if you're not pushing the enveloppe, you will never move forward. This is the reason for having strict rules.CR

Smokey also said: IF it is Not in the RULE BOOK it is LEGAL !

Those Pure Stockers have really strict rules and go through an full NHRA like Teardown to claim their ET records.

AND not for Money ....they do it for Bragging Rights !!

As for the 1970 Buick...should fall in B or C Pure Stock.

Contact Mike Baker for you combination.
AND
Check with Dick Miller on suspension upgrades to make it hook.

If I remember right, NHRA started requiring race gas because pump gas wouldn't check.

Pure Stock would only happen at NHRA events if there was something in it for NHRA.
